sample function that returns IDataSeries?

[Tony345]

Hi,

Could the NT support give me a sample function that takes IDataSeries as input and returns IDataSeries?

Thanks

Hi,

There is a sample function in our Help Guide. Please let me know if this does not meet your needs or if the documentation is not clear and I'll be happy to clarify.

private double DoubleTheValue(IDataSeries priceData)
{
    return priceData[0] * 2;
}
 
protected override void OnBarUpdate()
{
    Print(DoubleTheValue(Close));
    Print(DoubleTheValue(SMA(20)));
}

return IDataSeries

I intend to ask an example function that returns IDataSeries, and also has an input of IDataSeries.

A DataSeries is constructed to only return a double.

We do not have any support/documentation for constructing your own custom IDataSeries to return another value, although it should be technically possible. I will refer you to the following thread which his information related to this topic:
